Seems to me President Carter wanted the full scoop on the UFO problem when he became President and CIA Director (Bonesman) HW Bush refused his
request.
Since Carter could have replaced HW Bushky on the spot, I suppose if the refusal did occur Bush must have told the President there were a lot of
Agencies/Military etc.. who supported Bushky's denial of Classified UFO info to Mr Carter.

Presidential Security Clearance
As many have Said, it's based on Need to Know! The President isn't given access to anything he doesn't need to do his Job. Also, noone is Ever
given Access to everything for security reasons! There are too many secret for one person to know anyway. Back in 1990 the National Archives stated
that they had in excess of 9'800 sq. Feet of classified documents from before World War 2 awating classification review!

yep, NTK is the rule for security clearances. Lets say I am int he military as a ranger tasked with doing covert ops. and I meet a Navy SEAL that does
the same. We both have a top secret clearance of the same level, and work on projects of the same level of classification. If we were to discuss our
respect classified misions with one another we could be arrested for not following proper procedure, and for distributing classified information
because even though we both had the proper clearance level, we did not have the proper NTK for each others assignments.
I am certain that the president and many other high ranking political figures (house and senate arms services comitee, sec def, sec energy, etc) are
all given a TS clearance upon election or appointment, however they do not get the NTK for everything under them, only what they actually need to know
at that time, of if it comes up and needs their attention. The sec def can not call up the drawings of all the nuclear weapons int eh stockpile and
study them for fun, he does not have a NTK for them. However if one were to start having safety and reliability issues and he needed to sit in on
meetings about it, he would be given the NTK and the needed schematics to follow as they talked about the problem.
